Mark 14:36-38

International Children’s Bible

³⁶ He prayed, “Abba,^[a] Father! You can do all things. Let me not have this cup^[b] of suffering. But do what you want, not what I want.”

³⁷ Then Jesus went back to his followers. He found them asleep. He said to Peter, “Simon, why are you sleeping? You could not stay awake with me for one hour? ³⁸ Stay awake and pray that you will not be tempted. Your spirit wants to do what is right, but your body is weak.”
